Summary

In a case where there was no express obligation in the lease on the landlord to carry out repairs, there was no reason based on necessity or business efficacy to imply a term into a commercial lease that the landlord had a duty to repair the retained parts of the building. While there was no express term in the lease to that effect, there was a separate clause requiring the landlord to speedily repair defects in respect of which it had made an insurance claim.
